Guild Wars 2

I’ve just come back to the game and I’ve participated in the crown pavilion event and to put it simply, I’d be stupid not to be there for every minute of my playtime. The gear rewards, the cogs that you turn in for high level gear, the xp per minute, the sheer amount of karma…it’s far too good.

I came back to play in the open world, and it’s just completely dead. The charr zone my new thief is going through is a ghost town, I’ve yet to see more than one other player on my screen at any time for any reason, and the player wasn’t even new like me, it looked like some high level guy doing low level stuff. I guess I’m running into people not having alts and the event just being so kitten good that there’s no reason to do anything else?

It’s disappointing to say the least. I didn’t come back to play a sort of arena styled PvE zerg in a single room for hours on end. I guess my consolidation is that it ends soon?

Granted, I’m not exactly against the event. The karma jugs are amazing and I’m building up tons of salvagables and selling lots of greens on the market, but I was hoping for more going on in the world.
